How did your calibration ever go, @AnitaW?

@Inês Maia I'm writing a little class about fixing coloured glasses glare. May I have your permission to include this photo? If not, that's completely okay.

How did you go, @Ang?

Start by running CleanMyMac. Then start purging and archiving.

Holy shit. This is bad. You really can't run Photoshop without 32GB of RAM these days. This is cata-bloody-strophic. You have to get that figure up to at least 150GB, pronto.

@Ang?

Can you do this for me?

Just one back.

You've got the very latest Photoshop update? Yes, it's like this for me too. It's an awful glitch, and I hope they fix it fast.

Well, just keep painting gently.

What do you think of it?

It's 10% by default I think.

Smoothing always 0, Flow always 100. They never vary. Opacity was 100% for the initial blob on her head, then I used 10% to expand it gently.

The sand won't give a blackened effect like in your sample photo, but it's worth a try.

Yes, that might work too. Yes, the background. It would be best if you had a photo with the massive sun flare on their heads too; or else find a different example photo without it.

Yes, that might be better.
